Raphaël VERGERE - Cave "Chantevigne"

The Cave Chantevigne is a small family winery founded in 1984 by Raphaël Vergère, who was at that time 26 years old and newly graduated from the School of Viticulture and Enology in Changins.

After taking over the family property of about 3 hectares he rented other vineyards to reach a total today of 5 hectares. Raphaël is also a nurseryman and has worked to diversify the planting of his vineyards, which enables him to produce a selection of 14 different wines.

To run the winery he is assisted by his wife Fabienne as well as by his untiring and hard-working predecessors, Léon and Simone. His vineyards are situated entirely within the commune of Vétroz with its superbly exposed slope entirely classed in the first (lowest altitude) zone.

The winery is located at number 25 rue Conthey in Vétroz. Raphaël is able to welcome visitors every day and by appointment; groups of up to 15 visitors are received in the warm and welcoming atmosphere of his carnotzet (the ‘grotto' or ‘caveau' of the Valais).
